Well is that for sure? His family being killed, and Lucio saving him could have been he getting rescued when he was already in say his 20's.
She couldn't have taught him magic at such time I think compared to if it had already manifested years earlier without supervision and his apprenticeship heart pangs would have been a lot less likely if he had gotten to Manhood by the time he met Luccio. So i'd say... based on what we know it seems likely.
